International Coffee Expo

May 4, 2012

The Melbourne International Coffee Expo has kicked off with vengeance… I have to say we have been dieing for something like this, congrats to the organisers.
Ok, so our stand is my apartment furniture, but hey, we are a software business basically, so we’ll just tell you what we see. We were hoping to have our new app ready to announce, but looks like testing will take a few more weeks. I’ll let u know when.

Keep an eye here or our twitter site. Its has been an amazing day,.. seems everyone is keen to meet everyone else.

A round of a plause goes to The Age, who have just announced their The Coffee Army Handbook, their version of our Top 100 coffee spots. We have to say, we are humbled indeed… no greater praise than someone imitating your work.

A few tips from us:
1. Teach your reviewers how to taste the coffee not just drink it.
2. Try and reach into the back alleys, the ones you chose are last years winners (2011).
3. Don’t review with the owners knowledge,.. kind ruins the cred…

Love the attempt though, hope to see you try again next year? 150 is not a bad first effort, kudos, but maybe you should just buy ours!! Remember we sent you a few copies?

MCR has been reviewing cafes and great coffee since 2004, and we have published the original and best Melbourne’s Top 100 Coffee spots for the past 3 years. We give readers the ability to vote for their favourite coffee spots, ensuring that the drinkers opinion is included in our own final reviews by the MCR team.

Our eBook will be available on the apple store next week and in the meanwhile, we wish The Age all the best of luck, but for the real reviews and to hear the voice of Melbournians, check out www.melbournecoffeereview.com.au or click here for the Top 100 2012.

That’s it for the three beaners for 2012, but the other 85 1 and 2 beaners are awesome cafes also and deserve your praise. If you don’t get the hard copy guide, then look out for the ebook, due on the Apple App store in a couple of weeks. For the rest of you you’ll need to wait for the new smart phone apps reseasing on iPhone and Andriod in january 2012.

In the meanwhile, from me, Peter Christo, and the rest of the MCR team, have a great, safe and peaceful holiday and we’ll see you next year for more great coffee spots.

In the meanwhile, remember, life is too short for bad coffee!
